Damn! It's going to be hoppin downtown this weekend - yee haw!!
hey all you rats, lay low till Monday...K?
You forgot Steinert's. They have great lunches.
That's a great restaurant list. I printed one for our office for out-of-town folks to use when they need lunch during deposition breaks.
Whoa awesome list! Would I be overstepping if I reposted this entire thing on Louisville.com tomorrow? With a link here, of course?
Also, I don't see Thorpe Woodworks's Friday event on here.
I added Steinert's and placed the Thorpe Woodworks event at the top because it is a special occurrence.
Anything else?
Angie, feel free to repost and link, but remember that Karen Gillenwater is the author. I'm just getting it on the Internet.
don't know if this fits anywhere on this list or not but there is also Mariposa, the upscale consignment and boutique store in the White House Centre which will be open on friday ans Saturday.
(and my photography studio will be opn on friday night as well)
Thanks, all. Feel free to use the list as you would like. I work on making the art happen, but with the other stuff I can only take credit for typing it up, which is nothing compared to the efforts of all the business owners! I've maintained the list at the Carnegie Center for our visitors for a couple of years now - though it's grown a lot over that time and it's getting harder to keep up with! Thanks for the additions. I have Mariposa and Courtney's info to add in, along with Steinert's. (I'll share that info. with you too Roger.) Keep in mind that these are special hours for this weekend. If anyone wants the list with regular hours, email me.
